Enemies to Lovers

These characters' hate for each other is un-matched. But is hate really so far from love?

If you've made it this far in the series, you can't stop now. You may be in for some heartbreak but it's so worth it.

This series is hands-down a 5 start read for me. The FMC has a secret even unknown to her and the MMC is hell bent on making her realize, while also falling for her.
Kindred's Curse Series by Penn Cole

The Inn Only Has One Bed

We all love this classic trope, and we also love staying up super late to get to the scene where they finally arrive at their place of rest for the note only to discover THERE IS ONLY ONE BED! And they hate each other, how could they share it?

Technically this is also an enemies to lovers and it is SUCH a good book. Funny & lighthearted too.
Behooved by M. Stevenson

While the series isn't necessarily based on “the inn only has one bed”, the MMC in this series has to keep a very close eye on the FMC, so they do end up sharing a bed (a little against her will but she secretly loves it). Amazing plot, greater love ...
